                           1. Introduction
=======================================================================

For those of you who have never played Monster Rancher before, allow me
to tell you about it. You take the role of a Monster Breeder, who's sole
purpose is to become the champion breeder. Sounds simple, eh? It's far
from. Tecmo came up with one of the most novel ideas in gaming history,
instead of catching monsters...you create them. Using music CDs, game
CDs and now DVDs, you create your own monsters to raise and battle with.
The game prompts you for a disc, it then reads the info from the disc
and somehow makes a monster for you. Don't ask me how it works, all I
know is that it does work, and it's great fun.

What I'm going to try to do here is come up with a comprehensive list of
monsters you can get in Monster Rancher 3. All of the monsters I list
are from actual CDs, and not the in game Saucer Stone fragments. I'm
going to need some help, so if you have some that you don't see on my
list, e-mail me and I'll add it to the list, along with your name in the
contributor credits. Deal? Cool. Let's get started.

One note however, if you don't see a monster in this FAQ or know someone
who has it, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET IT. Do NOT email me asking how to
get a certain monster. If it's not here, I DON'T KNOW. Understood? Also,
if the CD/Game/DVD is already listed here, don't send me the info again,
it just makes it harder to update.

This following bit is from [email protected]. Great info here-
"Found out what the DOA2 disc makes.

Izuna Zan/? Rare breed

To get Zan you have to be B rank while training in Brilla. Taya will
tell you about about a strange monster with weird acessories that
attacked her. When you meet it you find out after a few fights that it
belongs to none other than Gadamon. It was altered by special
acessories. After you find out about the acessories, after the third
fight, you'll be attacked by the creater of them. He'll have a pure
breed Zan, called Zan Altered. After you beat him he'll come back the
next week and tell you about how he got the monster and give you an item
to unlock them in the shrine. Now they're available from cds.

Izuna is easily one of the coolest looking monsters I've seen. And from
what I can tell it's STRONG! It is tied for the best looking in the game
with Fenril. In my opinion anywayz."


More great info from [email protected]:

"Monster Rancher Battle Card Episode 2 gives you:
Magi - Joker/? rare breed

To get a Joker train in Goat till Kai comes by and tells you about a
tournament, he'll give you an item and tell you to be at the arena at
night in November. Jenna will come the week after and tell you she
hasn't heard of a tourney at night, and that it sounds suspicious. Go to
Morx and the next week Mosha will come to talk to you about and
experience from when she was younger. Go back to Goat and wait till the
second of November, then go to the tourney. I won't say anything about
what will happen when you show up, just that the next sequence will lead
to a fight that will get you a Joker if you win.
DO NOT LOSE!!!! Trust me!
Magi looks really, REALLY, weird. I probably won't even train one. "

Side note- I finished this quest and didn't receive a Joker, I just got
the stone to take to the shrine. I used Ice-T and got a Joker,
purebreed.

                  3. Tips and Suggestions on Breeding
=======================================================================


There is a Japanese promo soundtrack for Monster Rancher 3 that extracts
monsters based on the breeders level. If you have this disc, when you
scan it, it's called "Pandora's Disc". I got mine from Gamestop, so if
you can get one, I highly recommend it. Apparently the Pandora disc
produces different monsters every time you use it. I will of course add
the monsters as I reach the higher ranks.

Speed is one of the key attributes for your monster. If you can birth a
monster with a speed of 150+, KEEP IT! You will be able to attack 2-3
times for each one of your opponents attacks. You can always "Raise"
your monster for STR and DEF, but SPD is a winner.

During the "Venture", always get the Extract. Yes, it's expensive, but
you can find stones and Succulent Flowers that allow you to gain new
skills, and boost your attributes, respectively. Once you find the
"Lord" of your training area, use the stones to gain new skills. Skills
are just new attacks you can use in battle, and once gained, they will
prove invaluable.

"Guts" is similar to Mana or AP in other games. It dictates how and when
your monster can attack. I recommend not attacking until your guts are
full, then unleash everything you have on your opponent. Many moves have
the bonus of taking guts away from your enemy, which in turn takes their
moves away. Also, if you can take advantage of your opponents attack
range, you can almost win every fight without taking any damage.
